Redefine Success: What I Wish I Knew at 17
When I was 17, I thought success looked like a college degree, a corner office, and a hefty paycheck. Now, at 37, success is keeping the kids alive, drinking coffee before it gets cold, and navigating Legos like they’re landmines.

The Day I Discovered the True Meaning of Strength in Weakness
When I prayed for God to help me understand 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, I was hoping for some quiet reflection time, maybe a fresh perspective over a cup of coffee—not a medical crisis, a career upheaval, and a total rewrite of my life plan. But God, in His wisdom (and divine sense of humor), knew that the only way I’d truly grasp His power in my weakness was to walk through a season where I had nothing left but Him.
Now, when I ask God to help me understand Scripture, I always add, “But please, Lord, nothing too dramatic this time.”
